 8	  This is the next generation of the ext3 filesystem.

10	  Unlike the change from ext2 filesystem to ext3 filesystem,
11	  the on-disk format of ext4 is not forwards compatible with
12	  ext3; it is based on extent maps and it supports 48-bit
13	  physical block numbers.  The ext4 filesystem also supports delayed
14	  allocation, persistent preallocation, high resolution time stamps,
15	  and a number of other features to improve performance and speed
16	  up fsck time.  For more information, please see the web pages at
17	  http://ext4.wiki.kernel.org.

19	  The ext4 filesystem will support mounting an ext3
20	  filesystem; while there will be some performance gains from
21	  the delayed allocation and inode table readahead, the best
22	  performance gains will require enabling ext4 features in the
23	  filesystem, or formatting a new filesystem as an ext4
24	  filesystem initially.
